Tips & Tricks
  • Vi always wants Infinity Edge. Beyond that, you can pair the IE with crit items like Hand of Justice or Striker’s. Giant Slayer is generally good on every carry. You can also use Bloodthirster, Edge of Night, and Sterak’s. Just make sure to always build IE.
  • Vi Hero augment can get rerolled with Jhin, Smolder, or you can push levels and play around Ashe.
  • In Patch 15.5, Ashe’s ability stopped scaling with Attack Speed. Generally it is always correct to build Giant Slayer + Kraken. Rageblade might not even be necessary (in the duelist version, it looks bad — in this version, it looks okay but may not be optimal).

Economy Strategy
  1. Level to 4 if you have upgrades and a good item to place on one of those upgrades.
  2. Level to 5, unless on 3 loss streak.
  3. Level to 6. Roll until stable. “Stable” changes depending on rank, items, augments, composition, and patch, but generally speaking it involves 2-starring your desired 2-cost carry and a tank with items. Major divergence between elos: The lower your elo, the less upgrades you need to be “stable” and thus lower elo players should generally roll less than high elo players on 3-2.
  4. After your 3-2 rolldown, you should attempt to rebuild your economy to 50g.
  5. Once you reach 50g (it might be later than 3-5), start slow rolling down to ~52g each turn. Try to avoid rolling to exactly 50g as any unit you want to buy in shop will put you below 50g.
  6. If you are high HP relative to the lobby, continue slow rolling to 52g each turn. If you are lower HP, you should roll to hit your first 2-cost 3 star on 4-1 or 4-2. If you have to roll below 30g, your placement is usually capped at 3rd or 4th.
  7. If you are still high HP (70+), you can continue to slow roll. Otherwise, in the majority of cases, you should roll deep for your 3-stars here. If your HP is low, you can even go to 0 gold looking for your 3-stars. If you have your 3-stars and can afford to level to 7 with 10g+, do so.
  8. Level to 7 if you haven’t already.
  9. Level to 8 as soon as possible. This may not happen until 5-5 or in some games, stage 6.
  10. Level to 9 whenever possible. This is rare, but can happen in the games you have a chance of winning.

  1. Vi's friendship ended with Jinx, now Jhin is her new best friend

    Will you put the Jhin version in the dropdown? It’s 0201818001416f01a18e18a178190000TFTSet15 , 6 Juggernauts + Jhin + Gnar with Varus at 9

    I just got first with this, I’m pretty sure Shojin and Trickster are BIS

    this does not work with cloning facility btw, do not get fooled like i did

    Definitely need trickster, this comps ass without it

  5. Anonymous

    its ass rn. u need trickster maybe, kept getting stuck on tanks

  6. Philup

    Trickster HAS to be better than unflinching, for some comps that have 1 backline carry this autowins fights even lategame. It’s almost a tier lower if you whiff on trickster

    To me you play this comp like colossal udyr with gunblade on ashe, smolder/jhin are a lot worse

    Played this with Titanic Hydra thinking I lowrolled, it was quite good at 3 star, top 3

      Tried it with Jhin, It’s not possible to do it. you need your bis items on Vi and need to greed for it. so its gonna be better to go for a secondary (much needed) carry who uses other components then gloves and swords. Maybe an ap caster like Ziggs/Kog?

  8. rufflehuffle

    Seems best to play with a reroll duo carry: Smolder > Jhin > Kai’ Sa

        You usually don’t hit ashe lvl6 unless giga highrolling. you are also gonna be stuck most of the game on 6, so rolling for a 2 cost seems best

    Sated Spellweaver seems pretty strong here

    i also wanted to ask is the powerup not done yet good in early game ? or its not worth since shes not dying 10 times, or rarely at least

    What priority would you give to the S+ tier artifacts? Vi has so many options it’s hard to order.

    IMO it’s Silvermere > Trench Coat >> RFC, Fishbones, Sniper’s

      it says best in slot is (Suspicious Trench Coat)
